EPA/DHA Essentials

Price varies
Triglyceride FormHypoallergenicMolecularly Distilled

This is a high-quality triglyceride (TG) form oil from a trusted practitioner-grade brand, but it falls short of 'Gold' status due to its 50% Omega-3 concentration (300mg EPA/200mg DHA per 1000mg oil), which is below the 60-80% gold standard. While it undergoes rigorous testing for heavy metals and PCBs, it lacks the batch-specific IFOS 5-star certification found in top-tier competitors.
